has the neutral zone crew tried the grimace shake??

Yes, Copper tried the shake and the results were so horrifying that Galen banned the shake from ever entering the ship again.

🎫 could be anyone, I just wanna know them facts :))

Alrighty! Since you got a KRAN Oc and I got one, I’m gonna go with Danny. And because I hardly talk about him, I’m gonna give two facts for the price of one!

(KRAN frametype and lore by @cuppajj)

Fact number one!

Danny loved working with the humans who found him, but there were five who he especially loved to work with. His memories of them might be a little scrambled, but just like he was named by the oldest miner, he named his five friends.

The funny one who loved to get into trouble was named Plate Breaker, because he once broke a bunch of plates as a brank.

The scared one who often sat on Danny’s shoulder or hid behind his peds was named Shadow Welder.

The only female of the group was named Smoke Break, because he often hung out with Danny when she was taking her smoke break. She was also someone who often worked with him on his confidence.

The loud one who always sung or danced was named Rhythm Wave. This guy could always, somehow, find rhythm in even the most obscure thing, and Danny loved that.

And the last one was named Driller, because he oversaw the drills and didn’t like the other names Danny tried to give him.

Of course, all five of them had their own names, but they also saw how happy it made Danny to give them names. So, they just shrugged and accepted them. All six of them were a team, a family. None of them went far without the others knowing where they were going, and they often took Danny (in his holo-form) out to the nearest town to, at least, give him the chance to see more than just the mines.

So, it broke his spark when they suddenly didn’t come to work anymore. No-one came to work, and Danny spend a long time waiting for his friends and family to come back. But when it was clear that they wouldn’t return, he left too. With the only memory of his time in the human mines being the pictures his friends took with him.

Fact number 2!

There is a reason why Danny calls Apprentice “Teacup” from time to time.

It started after Danny joined Apprentice and Toymaker on their travels. While they were busy doing their crafts or didn’t need Danny’s help, the KRAN often got bored and started to mess around with things. Stacking some of the boxes for fun, reading, or just laying around and waiting for something to do.

It was one of those days when he didn’t know what to do, when Apprentice brought back a weird thing that was, apparently, a human teacup. Danny found the thing interesting and, with them having enough material, started to try and replicate the small teacup.

And after a while, he finally managed to make his own cybertronian sized teacup.  Which was promptly destroyed by Apprentice in an accident, but hey. Danny wasn’t mad about it and just went back to making a second one. Finishing it with Apprentice’s help and giving it to the flier with a big grin. “A teacup for a Teacup.”

The second teacup was also the last one Danny ever did, because getting the materials was too much of a bother. Now he’s simply helping Apprentice out whenever it comes to finding materials or other stuff.

Bonus!

Both @tachyon-omlette and @maydays-medbay have tagged me, so I guess I really have to do this now. XD

Last song I listened to: The last song I can remember listening to was “Jolene” from Dolly Parton, but mostly because I was also playing it. Although, while writing this I was listening to some songs from Postmodern Jukebox, so, there's that.

Currently watching: I was rewatching Transformers Animated yesterday, and before that it was Bayverse Transformers.

But if you’re asking about general shows, there’s this one called “Zwischen Tüll und Tränen” I like to watch whenever it comes up. It’s about brides trying on and buying their wedding dresses. (It gets funny when you’re sitting there and contemplating what kind of wedding dress your favourite blorbos would wear. Like, Rodimus would definitely be an A-Line or a Princess with Carmen Sleeves with a lot of glitter. Fit-and-Flair and Mermaid would be too tight for him and lack the movability he would like/want.)

Currently reading: I’m currently reding Dracula. I already read it once, but never finished it, and with how things are currently going, I thought it would be nice to start from the beginning and, hopefully, finish it now.

Current obsession: Legend of Zelda, Pokemon, Transformers, Dragons, and that one Dinosaur videogame I'm currently playing

Tag nine people you’d like to get to know better: I usually don’t tag people, but here goes nothing. Feel free to ignore this.
